Chris...out of curiosity why do you try not to have multiple dmHTML's
under one nav node?  Does it cause some kind of problem that I should be
aware of or is it just a preference.  If it's just a preference what's
the reason behind it.  Anything I can do to save myself hassels in the
long run is worth the time on the front end.

I can't speak for Chris, but I don't like (presonal preference) to do it because when using dmNavigation to link to dmHTML objects, the dmNavigation (by default) only links to the first dmHTML object found underneath it. So the only way to link to other dmHTML objects is to link to their objectids directly.


I had one client who was interested in this option though. They had multiple files in one dmNavigation that they wanted to rotate.

Example: You have 4 files (each representing a season). Your company wants to "move" each file up to the top of the navigation node when it's corresponding season starts (works great). But when using the verity search it searched all of the dmHTML objects. The only workaround was to either edit core verity files or set the dmHTML objects to draft.

This doesn't mean that having multiple dmHTML objects in a navigation node is bad, its just a personal preferrence (at least for me).
